Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Time up and go test
On post op- day 3 and 5 Participants will quickly perform test to assess lower extremity strength and risk of fall. The time taken to complete test will be noted
Five times sit to stand test
On post-op day 3 and 5, Participants will perform test by transitioning from sitting to standing five times in row, time would be noted. This test helps to evaluate lower extremity balance and strength.
2 Minute walk test
The test will be performed on post-op day 3 and 5, the participants will walk on a flat surface in a straight line and the distance will be noted. This test assess endurance
6 Minute walk test
This is a self-paced test which will be performed on post-op day 3 and 5 where the participants have walk on a flat, smooth surface. The distance covered during this test will be noted. It measures aerobic capacity and endurance.
